anaconda-navigator stuck on loading applications

$ anaconda-navigator 
WARNING: The conda.compat module is deprecated and will be removed in a future release.
/anaconda3/lib/python3.7/site-packages/anaconda_navigator/api/conda_api.py:1364: YAMLLoadWarning: calling yaml.load() without Loader=... is deprecated, as the default Loader is unsafe. Please read https://msg.pyyaml.org/load for full details.

I have seen this error posted in a few places but none of the sites give any viable solution.

The applications work if launched directly though (so for now, I'm going with that)

In case you need a detailed log, I have run the same command with --verbose and --debug options available here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1Xump5Ns0FFX7N9Ujl0kqPZVNhXZgm4j1/view?usp=sharing

I found a solution for freezing at "Loading applications".
Try to change the file at anaconda3\Lib\site-packages\anaconda_navigator\api\conda_api.py
in function load_rc from

data = yaml.full_load(f) # around line 1391

data = yaml.safeload(f)  # quoting from Salim Tekin

I had to uninstall a standalone version of python first. Once I did, then the install worked and the navigator launched fine.

For me on windows 10, It worked with below steps

tasklist | findstr "pythonw" ( shows Process IDs)
taskkill /pid 99999 /f ( 99999 - is the PID of the process,kill all such process )
changed the below line C:\anaconda\Lib\site-packages\anaconda_navigator\api\conda_api.py at line 1364 data = yaml.load(f) ( old one data = yaml.safeload(f) ( new line)
start anaconda navigator from start menu
